Our aim is to try to resolve your query as quickly and efficiently as possible, within a convenient timeframe for you. With this in mind, we've created this comprehensive help section where you'll find solutions to a wide variety of queries.
Our telephone lines are for sales orders only. For technical advice, you are welcome to email us and we will try to answer your query, but it is always best to contact the manufacturer directly. Nobody knows products better than the manufacturer, so it's no surprise they can usually answer queries much more quickly and comprehensively than us.

Can I collect my order from you ?
Customers often enquire whether techboost.co.uk offers an order collection service. The answer is 'no' we don't.
Why? Well for a number of reasons... Firstly, the techboost way of doing business, is to focus on selling products via the Internet - it's what we're good at! Secondly, the our warehouse and stock is in sealed boxes on specially tailored product racking, so for health & safety and security reasons, we cannot allow the public inside.
We do understand that some people may want to physically see and possibly even have a demonstration of the products they'd like to buy. Such a service incurs high costs for any retailer and tends to impact on pricing. Even in physical shops, working demonstrations are only offered on a tiny fraction of products.
Plus, you'll notice that techboost.co.uk prices are nearly always less than High Street shop prices... and this is one of the reasons why we don't introduce such a service. For most products on the techboost.co.uk website, we provide a detailed product specification and a photograph.

For security reasons, this is the only way that we send customer passwords.
Which delivery companies do you use ?
We work with a number of delivery companies.
Depending on the size, weight and delivery address of the goods in your consignment, our system will automatically select the delivery company best suited to the needs of your order at any given point in time. Our main delivery partners are DHL and the Royal Mail. Alternative carriers are used in some circumstances (where goods are particularly heavy or bulky or where goods are despatched directly from the manufacturer).
Our system takes many factors into consideration when selecting the most appropriate delivery method for you to ensure your item reaches you how and when you expect it. Unfortunately this means that customers are not able to specify a preference for any delivery method.
Changing your contact details
You can keep all your contact details up to date though the 'My Account' section.
You can access 'My Account' at any time by clicking the link found in the top right-hand corner of our website. Once logged in, you can choose to manage your contact details, addresses and communications preferences by navigating to the relevant option.

You will now be presented with a list of options regarding your account. The option you need to select is 'Change login details'.
Enter your details as requested on this screen and click the 'Save Changes' button to complete the process.
Only part of my order has arrived
I am not available to receive delivery
Delivery will normally be attempted twice (if courier) and once (if Royal Mail). With either delivery method, a card will be left instructing you of the best method to collect your goods. If you do not collect the item, the delivery company will return the item back to our nationwarehouse where a full credit for the goods (excluding the carriage charge) will be issued back to the original payment method used for the order.
It is not possible to re-direct an order for several reasons, including security.
Why do you not offer technical advice over the phone ?
As an Internet company, techboost.co.uk is a 'value' retailer where our business is geared towards delivering great products at great prices, as efficiently as possible. By investing in technology to streamline our internal procedures we've been able to keep our prices low, which, when combined with our ability to quickly process and deliver your orders is the main reason customers choose to shop online with us.
We do not offer a telephone service for technical enquiries. Our telephone lines are for sales orders only. We will always respond to your emails to sales@techboost.co.uk but please bear in mind our catalogue runs into many thousands of products and we cannot possibly attempt to offer advice on every single product.
We believe we can satisfy the needs of our consumer customers most readily via email, than we've historically been able to achieve with a telephone service.
Our website includes all the product information we have available to us and we also recommend the websites of our manufacturer partners.
We hope you'll appreciate the benefits of our approach and we will continue to leverage technology to further enhance your shopping experience with us in the future.
